Mufasa: The Lion King is the prequel to The Lion King live action film and is the origin story of Mufasa. A controversial change to the original got me a bit hesitant on the film, but in the end I thought this movie did a great job. The film was amazing at building up to the story we know and love today, and how this is not just a prequel, but also sets up a potential Lion King 2 film. The visual effects in this movie were outstanding, but the criticisms in this movie stand out like a bruise. The songs weren't good at all. They were weird and didn't shout classics. No chance. The runtime was too long and it kept switching point of views from Rafiki who's telling the story and Mufasa talking and sharing his problems. This movie is still good though and I wouldn't mind seeing this movie again.

Great graphics especially in Imax. Shows both storylines and feelings engaging the audience. Good movie

I quite liked the storyline all though at times a little but tricky to follow the music and characters were very good and I would recommend watching it.
